Woody Resources as a Medium for Colonial Engagement: Explaining the Artifactual and Architectural Record at La Soye, Dominica
Wood and other tree byproducts were significant commodities in contexts of early colonial economies, but few archaeological studies focus on these resources. This article presents historical and archaeological evidence of the exploitation of woody resources for the purpose of naval stores and export at the site of La Soye, Dominica, Eastern Caribbean, beginning in the 1580s and continuing until the first quarter of the eighteenth century.

The Archaeology of Settler Farms and Early Plantation Life in Seventeenth-Century Barbados
This article presents methodologies employed in, and initial interpretations of, an archaeological study of a pre-sugar and sugar era Barbadian plantation. A close examination of a 1646 map reveals a pre-sugar landscape in transition as the island was in the midst of the transformative sugar revolution. The map directed archaeological investigations that recovered materials associated with pre-sugar labourers, including European indentured servan…

Craft Enterprise and the Harriet Tubman Home
Archaeological research at the Harriet Tubman Home in New York uncovered the importance of bricks and brickmaking to the social history concerning Tubman and the local African-American community. The remains of a brick kiln were recovered on the property and local bricks were used by African-American laborers to construct Tubman's house. The recovery of a strong archaeological footprint related to brickmaking led to archival research that links T…
The archaeology of not being governed: A counterpoint to a history of settlement of two colonies in the eastern Caribbean
In this article we examine the role of informal settlements inhabited by Europeans, Africans and, potentially, indigenous people in the eighteenth-century insular Caribbean. Rather than simply being frontier settlements established in anticipation of formal colonization, in many cases settlements on and beyond the margins of colonies represent alternative possibilities and facilitate ways of life, modes of production, and means of trade and excha…
Degrees of freedom in the Caribbean: Archaeological Explorations of Transitions From Slavery
The anniversary of the abolition of slavery was justly celebrated worldwide in 2007. But what is the character of freedom, how does it relate to material culture, and how can archaeology study it? The author here summarises ideas he has been developing in Jamaica and York over the past two years
A Sea of Diversity: Historical Archaeology in the Caribbean
Uncovering Inspiration: Current Archaeology Investigationsof Harriet Tubman in Central New York
Most research on nanoformulation development for Ritonavir is mainly focused on enhancing the solubility and oral bioavailability of the drug. Some of the researchers focused on the lymphatic targeting of the drug in order to bypass the hepatic metabolism of the drug. However, most of the research topics did not cover the toxicity evaluation of the developed formulation. Since the major issue of Ritonavir is not only oral bioavailability but also…

The Archaeology of Liberty in an American Captial: Excavations in Annapolis
Over the last two decades, there has been increasing attention to community archaeology, an archaeology which acknowledges the impact of archaeological research upon the communities among which it is conducted. Doing fieldwork has tangible effects upon the people we work among: archaeologists provide employment, spend money locally, negotiate local power structures, provide exotic connections, and, not least, change the landscape of knowledge by …
